1) Equivalent resistance, 1/R = 1/15 + 1/40 + 1/60 = 8+3+2 /120 = 13/120

R = 120/13 = 9.23

2) Current, I = V/R = 115/9.23 = 12.45 A

3. An athlete makes a long jump and follows a projectile motion. Air resistance is negligible. Which one of the following statem
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

The motion under the influence of gravity is called projectile motion.

The acceleration due to gravity is constant through out the motion and it is always acting downwards.

When an athlete jumps and follow the projectile path, it always have the same horizontal velocity as there is no acceleration in the horizontal direction.

Also he has the vertical acceleration constant which is equal to the acceleration due to gravity and acts towards the center of earth.  

Option (b) is correct.

Write a sentence to describe how an image is formed on retina<br>when looking at distant objects.​
beks73 [17]

Answer:

An image is formed on the retina with light rays converging most at the cornea and upon entering and exiting the lens. Rays from the top and bottom of the object are traced and produce an inverted real image on the retina. The distance to the object is drawn smaller than scale

Explain how a step-down transformer makes electricity safe for use in homes.
Savatey [412]

Answer:

it lowers the voltage in homes

Explanation:

this is due to safety reasons as a human cant survive power line voltages which are between 150k and 760k and if you plugged anything short of a piece of 1 inch thick wire not counting insulation it would immediately start smoking and burn the cable.

Light of wavelength 580 nm is incident on a slit of width 0.30 mm. An observing screen is placed 2.0 m past the slit. Find the d
uysha [10]

Answer:

Y = 3.87 x 10⁻³ m = 3.87 mm

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by using Young's double-slit experiment formula:

Y = \frac{\lambda L}{d}

where,

Y = fringe spacing = ?

L = slit to screen distance = 2 m

λ = wavelength of light = 580 nm = 5.8 x 10⁻⁷ m

d = slit width = 0.3 mm = 3 x 10⁻⁴ m

Therefore,

Y = \frac{(5.8\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)(2\ m)}{3\ x\ 10^{-4}\ m}

<u>Y = 3.87 x 10⁻³ m = 3.87 mm</u>
